Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

In order to generate more income, and help off-set cost increases, hire charges were raised, four new classes had been started (unfortunately two others had closed), and a hirer self service booking system had been implemented. Ad hoc bookings had been quite strong since the Hall fully reopened without restrictions.

To manage heating costs more effectively, the heating schedule is set more accurately around Hall usage times, and the temperature setting has been reduced by one degree. The Hall had also moved to a 3 year green energy electricity tariff.

Income from hirings for the year was up to just over £11,000 which was less than the income generated immediately pre-pandemic but was nevertheless very encouraging.

Operating costs for the year, including repairs and maintenance, were in excess of £16,000 which meant that there was an operating deficit of over £5,000.

Fund raising events held during 2022/23 had raised £6,600. This included £2,400 from the Hall 100 Club. A special Jubilee BBQ was held to commemorate HM The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

A key aim for the year had been the redevelopment of the old committee room into an occasional bar/servery. The cost estimate for the work was £16,500, including the replacement of the floor which had wet rot, dry rot and woodworm. The actual cost was £15,850, which also included some minor repairs elsewhere. Whilst the work was being undertaken it was decided to take the opportunity to replace the alarm system. The new system covers the whole building and operates on a wifi basis. It cost £745.

Also the Hall interior was redecorated at the beginning of January.

The performance of the Hall investments were reviewed during the year and it was decided to sell the entire Fixed Interest Fund holding as the unit price was falling heavily.

The final aim for the year was to decide the next project for the Hall. Unfortunately this was not possible because of concerns regarding the future of the Social Club. Its dereliction has become a serious problem as the roof is now falling in. The Parish Council applied for the building to be listed as an Asset of Community Value but this was refused by Stratford District Council. The owners (the Corbally Group) have indicated that the property will be put up for sale but have given the Memorial Hall first refusal. The asking price is £150,000 to £180,000 which is an impossible sum for the Hall. The sale will bring parking issues for the Memorial Hall as the Social Club owns part of the car park.
